EDIT: Solved!! Thank you!

Is there anyone around here with experience using #Godot on #Linux? 🙏

Taking a desperate long shot before bed..

My kids and I are doing a game jam (#GGJ), spent a week on a cute game... and I have spent soul-crushing day trying to get this thing to export for any platform. Trying to keep a brave face for the kids but I'm at table-flip levels of frustrated. 😭

Short version: Error in export can't copy export template.

Details in replies.

🤞 Thank you!

• Godot v 4.3

• Ubuntu 20.04

• Installed Godot from Ubuntu Software Center

• Installed the export templates from mirror successfully

• When doing an export for linux or windows it errors when creating the pck file.

-Says it can't copy the export templates

• I tweaked permissions on them.

• I tried re installing them from a download.

• I tried moving them & setting a 'custom' template.

• Error looks like the attached but for Linux platform.

• I can get a .x86_64 file but it won't run. (Assume missing PCK file.)

Really hoping we don't end the game jam with nothing to show for it. 😣

Folks... I don't know what else you have going on in your lives, but please know that today you made a little Canadian family's entire week and saved the project.!! 💚 🤗 🎉

Uninstalling #Godot and re-installing from the direct download off their website for Linux has solved the problem!!

I am beyond thankful and amazed at the awesome response here on Mastodon. You all are fantastic people. Thank you!!
